2. I think CCY did a brilliant job coordinating a campaign blitz at the right time. Too bad that such accomplishment would be hard to repeat as the rules changed to prevent a single round burst to 'benefit' so much.

3. Shiho Matsuri, Amamiya Yuuko, Hitotsubashi Yurie are all moe.

4. I failed in getting Sola even into nomination phase for my school's anime club's next semester anime, despite getting endorsement from 2 other members. That's what can happen if nomination slots are all picked by club president, who don't have to bow to mass pressure.

5. I think it is also safe to say Kuronuma Sawako will pass the nomination phase. Too many people are talking about Kimi ni Todoke for it to not happen.

6. Ep. 10 of Natsu no Arashi may have placed Arashiyama Sayoko into prelim as well. See the episode yourself for the reason.

7. Saten Ruiko is Moe.

8. Tsukishima Sisters are all moe, including the replacement sister, Takigawa Akane.

9. Lack of recognition for Cross Game series makes me doubt humanity.

10. I wonder how well Sacred Blacksmith characters will do. The characters are deliberately designed to hit the moe watchers, but the series also lacks mass recognitions.

11. I think we will have couple of contenders who surprisingly won't pass nomination for people thought others will nominate them.

12. Misaka Mikoto looks awfully strong these days. However, I saw some pictures of Nagato Yuki recently that makes me believe she will finish again in top 4 next year.

13. I don't think Katsura Hinagiku can repeat unless they come up with 3rd season that somehow surpasses 2nd season. Just, Impossible.

14. Will Shana dominate in the regular season again, only to fail in DE?

15.Will Clannad girls fade?

16. How well would Akiyama Mio do? Will she make it to DE, or is the hate too strong?

17. Which character will pull of a feat similar to Shinku and do very well compared to this year? I think, again, Misaka Mikoto is the most likely candidate for this.

18. Will Railgun and Seitokai no Ichizon dominate in the nomination phase? How much hope do they have in the prelim?

19. Does Hanato Kobato have a chance? Should I drop her for Tsuchimiya Kagura?

Right now I will assure you that Mio Akiyama will make it into the prelims. There is a 100% possibility, not even a chance of error. If you want to know why, then you will have to try and convince Juice to finish the ISML 2010 rules.

(12) If Mikoto was able to break the top 50 in 2009 in such a serious series like Index, then the comedy and moe factor of railgun will put her in the top 20 or even better in 2010.

Spoiler for J-Saimoe:

Mikoto could of reached the final 8 of saimoe except for a bad early matchup with mihoko.

While her energy and moe factor will help Misaka Mikoto, the quiet factor could perhaps leave Nagato Yuki at a disadvantage.
(13) It would be great to see hinagiku win again, but even I would want to see another winner.
(16) J-Saimoe was perhaps a fluke. Leave the nominations open to everyone and not a few, she will make it. She might have trouble in DE if there are no new K-ON episodes if she does make it.

I'm pretty sure there are alot of nominations out there for Mio, but they don't actually count until the beginning of the month. It's possible some may change their mind when it counts.

Dang it Avalon, you c(XD LOL)-block Shirou and Reinforce, but don't protect his mind in other ways? What is wrong, you woman?
Friendship, be made! Magical power, gather! Starlight Breaker.... this world!

Considering a certain character which shall not be named, can be nominated...I'd say it was discarded entirely.

I do hope that people do take it into account the lack of screen time despite abundance of fan materials. More importantly, I hope people respect what others think about the one who shall not be named. ( and no, I don't mean the Nameless one called K ' s Im. )

One things for certain, the abundance of fan material Isn't going to be coming from the anime when they only have a few seconds of screen time.

What about Grinface?Or was that from the manga first?

Anyway anyone think that Koyomi Morishitahttp://myanimelist.net/character/20962/Koyomi_Morishita
might have a chance of getting to the preliminaries? I wouldn't know a popular character if it dropped a washbasin on me so I need to ask other people. I was thinking of maybe knocking out one of my picks for her if someone thinks she has a chance.
Show was mediocre but she was moe.
(I'm already voting Rimi over Kozupii after all.)

Also I've decided to vote Akazukin over Gretal.
EDIT: BTW I've bought Shana so I should be able to watch it before March. So Shana fans don't have to threaten me anymore.And Hoop Days falls further and further into my backlog
